Dark summer taking its toll
Dark thoughts taking over my soul
Skeletons I been trying to hide
Take the wheel you’re just along for the ride
Oh, I’m living in shame! Oh, Lord, get me out of this pain!
Mother, mother did the best that she can
You're too old to try to blame her again
Showed us doors to right choices and wrong
I chose the wrong one now I’m singing this song
Oh, I’m living in shame! Oh, Lord, get me out of this pain!
I want to write about my rage but all that’s come out is my sadness
So I hope I can entertain you with my tales of drunken madness
Riding free in the wind and swimming in the ocean
I hope that can convince you that I’m reeling with emotion
Reality check is way overdue!
The world spinning ‘round at the speed of a hound
It kind of makes it hard to keep your feet on the ground
Often life can hit you much faster than light
Jump in the air and you’re pulled right back by gravity’s might
No more running away from you
Drowning sorrows could be your demise
Door 2 might be a new paradise
Stars shining ‘round the full moon in the night
Can mesmerize you if you look at it right
No more living in shame! Oh, Lord, get me out of this game!
A roller coaster ride of steep hills and turns
I coast through it like you got no concerns
Dormant lives awaken in spring
But dark summer can undo everything
Oh, I’m living in shame! Oh, dear Lord, get me out of this pain!
A soul lost while another is found
One day you’re here the next you’re down in the ground
